Default It's been hard...

...to stay quiet about this amazing beast but after having nearly three solid months of driving it under my belt it still does not cease to amaze me. The car is like stock until you step on the gas and then it transforms into a 10 second rocket. It is very hard to not stomp on the throttle every time I take the car out and keeping traction through a proper squeeze is the only problem. The performance is simply breathtaking...

As you can all see from the article, Phil did an amazing job and I would highly recommend his work to anyone. I love the car, I love the APS turbos and I have nothing but great things to say about the whole experience. Great job Phil and Jenny...first rate all the way.

Oh and Larry...get a Blinder laser jammer and a Valentine 1. They work...

Not much... it is slightly noticable, if at all.

Beats me but if it adds any, I can't tell. The package comes with heat shields that seems to be very effective. There tends to be a burning rubber smell from under the rear wheel wells though...

Thanks. Given that it looks virtually stock, the plates tend to attract the occassional teenager with a turbo four cylinder...for a second at least.

Default Vette Magazine Article

Here's the link to the March 2007 Vette magazine article on my car. Vette did a very nice job.

Wow! That is a nice setup. I cannot believe how the tubing wraps inbetween the suspension arms like that. Looks very clean!
